LOL Favors is trash.

Hoping this Pierce thing happens. If hes gone, KG is not gonna want to stick around.

Favors is far from trash.

Damn, Sheridan really going in right now, exciting stuff!

What has he done in this league to prove himself as anything but a bench player?

Hes garbage. Will never make it as a starter in the NBA.

While I may agree VC has an obsession w/ Favors and I'm not really all that impressed w/ him...In almost 22min/gm w/ Utah (a team w/ a surplus of bigs) this year he is avg. basically 9 & 6 w/ a stl and 1.5lbks...up that to 30-32min and he is probably close to a lock for averaging a double double w/ maybe 2bks a game...kid has talent, there really is no arguement...

Well I'm exaggerating mainly because I'm tired of people acting like Favors is gonna be some break out star.

I would say his ceiling is a double double man at PF. But that's the best case scenario. Hes more likely gonna be the first big man off the bench.

I don't think he can maintain those stats per 36. If hes on the floor that long hes gonna mess up in a big way.

He said the Lakers will move Dwight at the deadline if they don't think he's re-signing and Brooklyn will be in there and has the assets although they'd have some pause.

...Championship!!

In all seriousness yes, it would be perfect to have an Ibaka type power forward. Someone who is a stud defensively and also has a decent mid range game. Sadly these types of players are beyond rare.

The name you're searching for is Khem Birch. Khem Birch is the answer.

Wow thats crazy.

I feel like they could only trade him here because he wouldn't resign anywhere else right off the bat. So LA would have to choose between our assets or nothing.

Still would not trade Lopez though. We should force them to take Humphries, Wallace, Brooks or something. Don't see them ever doing it however.

Late to the party but here goes:

1. Lopez right now is playing much better and is healthier than D12. We really should not move him. We can throw it to Lopez and get results, unless its open D12 won't ATM and he's unlikely to get the calls due to his "tough" nature IMO(like shaq)

2. PF is indeed a need to upgrade. It's almost rather easy. If Evans can get a handle or glue on his hands, he'll be fine as far as complementing Brook in the starting five. Evans is better off the bench as we all know but it works with Brook. But I doubt Reggie will get glue so what do we do? Do we want a scoring(another?) PF or a defensive PF?

3. Crash has been our most consistent player who battles every night and provides energy and hustle on every play, and we want to move him? We're not exactly short on scorers in the starting five. IF we didn't have Joe, then yes, go for Gay. But honestly Crash works/meshes well with Dwill and JJ as a 4th option. He can score if needed or called upon but with JJ, Lopez and Dwill, he can be a sneak with his easy buckets. Don't trade Crash! we're going to need him vs LBJ, Wade, Melo, PP, George...etc.

those are my 3 most concerned topics ATM in this thread.

I love Crash. im sure every net fan does. but i absolutely trade him if the right deal comes along:

1) as much as he hustles and as good as he is defensively, he really didnt look all that effective against carmello and lebron. i think he is more an elite team defender as opposed to an elite one on one defender. im not sure we dont stay the same or improve defensively with gay or howard instead of him.

2) his health, especially going forward is such a big concern. with his age and style of play he is good for 20 missed games per season, spread out, and could go down at any time. for that reason alone id deal him for gay, who projects to be much healthier

im not saying trade him or shop him around, but if we could get someone liek Gay, i think we have to do it, even if reluctantly.

^^Completely agree!

I don't think Billy King would break up the team chemistry/locker room by trading Wallace. He is more or less the leader on this team.

1. Melo is having a MVP year and is just killing it right now IMO. Would you feel more optimistic with Crash or Gay covering the aformentioned in a tight game? Howard is a differnt position at PF/C.

2. Fair enough, I will say trading for Gay is more of a long term move than a short one.

To be on the up and up you nailed it here and this has always been more or less true with Crash. Good man defender, but not elite but an elite team defender and disruptor.

his health, especially going forward is such a big concern. with his age and style of play he is good for 20 missed games per season, spread out, and could go down at any time. for that reason alone id deal him for gay, who projects to be much healthier

Yes.

Honestly, I'd be fine with Gay or Wallace guarding Melo or Lebron, etc.
